Hey, It’s Mike with AffiliatePayDay, the affiliate marketing for beginners guide, with part four and five of the Affiliate Marketing For Beginners 10 Keys To Success course.

Today we will combine two lessons, since they are closely tied together. Today we cover marketing your website and your affiliate products.

Market your web site

You have to let the online community know about your site. Just because you now have a web site, doesn’t mean people will come.

You will be competing with millions of other websites. People and search engines won’t even know that your site exists, if you don’t do some things to get noticed.

To get noticed, submit online press releases related to your niche, submit your site to social bookmarking services, create content on high PR sites, like Squidoo , Weebly or Hubpages.

Create incoming links by posting appropriate, quality comments on blogs that are dofollow blogs. This is a fairly new strategy that not many know about.

I have a new blog dedicated to dofollow blogs, what dofollow blogs are, and how to identify dofollow blogs.

Please respect the blog owners who are giving you link credit by posting good comments.

Write unique quality articles and submit them to article directories. This is sometimes called Bum Marketing, and is a very good strategy for gaining incoming links and traffic.

Market your affiliate products

After you have a consistent number of visitors, it’s time to promote the affiliate products you’re selling. This is usually done with a sales page that is part of your web site.

A sales page is basically an article listing the benefits of your product, and what it will do for your niche audience. Benefits can be “it can improve the quality of your life”, “learn the secrets the experts don’t want you to know”, “learn the step by step system that a 26 year old used to become a millionaire”.

These sales page benefits may seem exaggerated, but they work and they aren’t uncommon.

If you’re not experienced in writing a sales page, learn to copyright - there a large number of copyright courses available online. Or, hire a professional ghostwriter to write your sales page for you.

Use the same strategies you used to market your website to market your sales pages - press releases, articles, dofollow blogs etc.

The next “Affiliate Marketing For Beginners 10 Keys To Success” post will be related to building an email list.
